Celebrity gossip and other excitements Holmes.

When was the last time there was Sherlock Holmes-based celebrity gossip
like the story spotted in the Daily Mail Online this week about a possible
romance between Benedict Cumberbatch and Lara Pulver? If ever there was a
screen-to-reality couple that would put that cardboard Twilight pair Robert Pattinson and Kristin Stewart to shame, that
coupling of “Sherlock” and “Irene” would do it. And they’re both 36, according
to the Mail Online!

SQUEEEEE!!!! (Yes, I am a paunchy, graying, middle-aged male, but I am very
much in touch with my inner teenaged girl. And a good friend taught me how to
squee, so I’m using it.)

And 221bCon has just announced that Curly of the Baker Street Babes is on
board as not only a guest, but a guest
doing a live podcast in April in Atlanta. As a brand new fan event, 221bCon is
sure to be a tale of triumph and tragedy for all who attend, as hitches and
glitches do tend to pop up at such things early on, but getting a Babe podcast
on the schedule is definitely a triumph, and being present for the first time
of anything is always a big, bright feather in one’s fancap. Don’t know if I
can possibly make that one, but just for the record . . .

SQUEEEEE!!!!

And then there’s SHERLOPALOOZA. It’s coming. It’s in London. I definitely
can’t go. But it exists, sound wonderfully cool, and is well worth a . . .

SQEEEEEEE!!!!!

And those were the happy Sherlock thoughts that brightened this week, when
no other significant news regarding Sherlock Holmes was out there. That’s my
story, and I’m sticking to it.
